1. The children’s friend is Jesus,
He calls them to His side;
He gave His life a ransom,
Heav’n's gate to open wide.

Refrain:
The children’s friend is Jesus,
Jesus, Jesus;
His life He gave their souls to save,
The children’s friend is He.

2. The children’s friend is Jesus,
He loves their joys to share;
He knows their little sorrows,
He longs each one to bear.

3. The children’s friend is Jesus,
There’s no one else so true;
He keeps all those who trust Him,
As no one else can do.

4. The children’s friend is Jesus,
He bids them work each day;
In gladsome, willing service,
His ev’ry call obey.

5. The children’s friend is Jesus,
And they His friends should be;
He never will forsake them
Throughout eternity.
